4th of July

So the 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays! That may sound funny to some of you but I have always enjoyed the fun festive activities and fireworks. When Spencer and I were engaged that was Spencer's first 4th of July in Sierra Vista. After that he said we are coming every year, I wasn't going to argue! Then we ended up moving back to Sierra Vista and decided to invite the Forsberg Family to come every year for a family reunion. This was the 2nd year and sooo fun!! Everyone (24 people) came Thursday night and stayed until Sunday. This was our weekend:
Friday : Boys went golfing and the girls took the kids to the "cove." (indoor water park)
Saturday: Early morning 4th July Breakfast and went swimming and played volleyball. That afternoon we celebrated all the July Birthdays (Caitlyn, Steph, Katie, and Spencer) plus Amy's. We decorated sugar cookies, ate lots and then that night we had a party at the park. We played baseball, football, talked, ate pizza, and watched the fireworks. The weather was awesome which is ALWAYS a plus! It was tons of fun having the Forsberg's here!! We look forward to next year!
